Rush Limbaugh Calls Politico Hit Piece on Herman Cain an “Unconscionable Racially Charged Attack”

Rush Limbaugh discussed the horrible smear against conservative Herman Cain today on his show.


The Right Scoop
has the video.

RUSH: Let’s do this Herman Cain story. I started out by talking about Clinton, and Bill Clinton must be laughing himself sick over this hit job from The Politico on Cain. And Cain now has denied it, without question. He has categorically denied any of this. But a story like this involving Bill Clinton, why, Clinton would be getting high fives, millions of dollars of campaign contributions from the NAGs. If this story were about Bill Clinton, the left would be circling the wagons doing everything they can to fend off the charge. I mean this story is a joke that can only truly be appreciated by Clinton and other sexual predators. The sources, which include the recollections of close associates and other documentation, describe episodes that left the women upset and offended.

“These incidents include conversations allegedly filled with innuendo or personal questions of a sexually suggestive nature, taking place at hotels during conferences, at other officially sanctioned restaurant association events and at the association’s offices. There were also descriptions of physical gestures that were not overtly sexual but that made women who experienced or witnessed them uncomfortable.” What the hell could that be? Need help here. What physical gestures that were not overtly sexual, what could they be that would make you uncomfortable that would fall in line with sexual harassment? What in the world could they be? (interruption) Well, that would be overtly sexual if he did that. There were descriptions of physical gestures that were not overtly sexual. Licked his lips with his tongue while looking at them. Well, dream on. “Made women who experienced or witnessed them uncomfortable and that they regarded as improper in a professional relationship.” That appears to be it. That appears to be it.

Now, we don’t have any evidence of ice packs on a busted lip as we had with Juanita Broaddrick and Bill Clinton. Yeah, Bill Clinton and Juanita Broaddrick, “Hey babe, you better put some ice on that, you’re bleeding at the lip.” We don’t have any of that. This story appears to me to be a close relative of the hit job that the Washington Post is doing on Marco Rubio. It’s not a news story. This is gutter partisan politics, and it’s the politics of minority conservative personal destruction, is what you’ve got here. Rubio and Cain unfit to lead, don’t you see. We cannot have a black Republican running for the office of president. We can’t have one elected. We can’t have an Hispanic.
